I am trying to think of a less impressive ability that could have been offered at the end of a quite difficult chain but am drawing a blank. A bit stunned by the sheer ordinariness and lack of utility.

It definitely doesn't seem to fit with the dialogue and the chain where they say it can aid its user in times of duress. Really not getting that one to be honest. Would have been niceer if it reduced ALL active timers abilities, invade, daily reward, etc, by 3-4 hours.

Wow.
Outside of getting a few extra free race changes, or maybe if your CT lab isn't full and you're praying for research, I don't see much use. The ROI for time/energy on this chain is mind-bogglingly low.
On the plus side, all of the new modules and most of the structures were pretty sweet, but the final reward... yeah. LOL

Totally Pongo, really enjoyed the chain as a whole but the final reward is just pretty crappy. Oh goodie, an extra race change maybe, once a year... congratulations on your win, we would like to honor your efforts by presenting you with this glass of tepid tap water, served from a rusty pipe. Enjoy!

On the plus side, now you will have more chances for tris and cubes for future energy hog chains lol
What's the cooldown on the ability?

20 hour cooldown on the ability. lol, I guess you're right about the extra chances for tris and cubes. Guess that *could* be handy-ish for some peeps which I guess would be good-ish. I'm still overwhelmed with the "blah" myself To be honest, the whole chain didn't put much of a dent in my energy reserves, I have a reasonably high energy bar so fortunately it wasn't really a big deal for me on that front. Energy Cube (Uses Left: 63) Tri-Matrix Emblem (Uses Left: 156)

Energy Cube (Uses Left: 80) Tri-Matrix Emblem (Uses Left: 161)
92662 / 100585 Energy
the daily reward timer is currently at 19 hours ... so you basically double your daily rewards .. including rank points, anniversary caches, spheres of the new era ... AND GALAXY POINTS !

Underwhelming to say the least. Well, it'll be convenient come the new year anyway.

Good news, it seems the original reward was *far* too delicious, so the bonus has now been reduced to 6 hours reduction.

What a load of bull. So all that effort on that chain for an even lesser reward now. Disappointing Dan strikes once again

306 planets, 17 databases. So, 1 in every 18 planets. At this rate, it'll take me 9360 purgers. Didn't even find a single bio-nest, either.

3098 scans so far, 136 databases, so 1 in every 22 or so, and another 6248 scans (on average) find the rest of them.
